Today we’re talking about Divination Conjure Style: Reading Cards, Throwing Bones, and Other Forms of Household Fortune-Tellingby Starr Casas. Or as I’ve come to think of it, a love letter to a deck of playing cards. Seriously, do you own a deck of playing cards? Then you should already own this book.<\/p>\n

\"\"It is no secret to anyone that a regular, ordinary deck of playing cards can be used for divination, but not until reading Divination Conjure Styledid I realize there were so many ways to accomplish it. Casas discusses conjure as the everyman’s tradition of divination, and what does every family have rattling around in a drawer in the house? A deck of cards. The book includes a detailed, card by card, look at playing cards featuring beautiful illustrations from Josef Bailey. Weiser Books would be wise to considering doing a companion deck featuring Bailey’s work. I cannot emphasize enough how this book opened my eyes to the versatility of a deck cards.<\/p>\n

Besides playing cards, Casas discusses throwing bones, reading candles, bibliomancy, divination with eggs, and more. All of this is thoroughly explained in a plain-spoken way that reflects the oral tradition in which Casas learned these skills.<\/p>\n

Divination Conjure Styleby Starr Casas is a fascinating look at divination for anyone interested in the topic or looking to branch out in their practice.<\/p>\n
